options. People are encouraged to bring chairs or a blanket to enjoy the
show.
Highview
Park is located at 7201 Outer Loop (enter through Briscoe Lane). Gates

 Weather has prompted sponsors of the annual Buy Local Fair to reschedule the fair from this weekend to July 2. The safety of our members, patrons and vendors is our primary concern.
The set up that is essential to happen on Saturday night and Sunday morning
will be impossible to do safely, and then rain and storms are also very
possible during event time.
Applications are now being accepted for the spring and summer sessions
of the Louisville Etsy Craft Entrepreneurship Program.
Dates for the six-class summer sessions include:
-
July 10, 12, 17, 19, 24, 26
- All classes meet on Mondays and Wednesdays
- Nia Center, 2900 W.
Broadway
- 4– 6 p.m.
